Breed flanks About With Plymouth Rocks as Layers, but Is Mors Aot Ivs and Has Less TsrxJsnoy to Ovsrfatnsss. (By 11. O. WJCATHKK8TONB.) ' The Wyandotte is smaller than the Plymouth Rook, but an equally rapid grower. It Is generally claimtyl that the White Wyandotte will stand push ing for rapid growth the best of any breed. As layers the Wyandotte* seem to rank about with the Plymouth Rocks, but being somewhat more active and Excellent Farm Type. having less tendency to overfatness they nhould b? credited with, a slight advant&ge. The Rhode Island Red breed con stitutes the latest addition to the list of popular American breeds of chick ens. This variety differs from the majority of breeds in claiming for themselves an origin based solely on practical considerations. They are partly of Asiatic blood, but in their selection, which extends over a period of fifty years, attention has been paid to rapid growth and egg production, so that the breed to day more nearly resembles the Leg horns than does either the Plymouth Rock or Wyandotte. One fundamental difference still ex ists that shows the Asiatic origin of the red chicken, they being persistent^ sitters. The Rhode Island Reds do not reproduce themselves with certainty as to shade of color or style of comb, but in practical points they may be considered a distinct and well-estab lished breed. In the eastern part of the IJnited States are many farms keeping from one to several thousand hena and devoted exclusively to the production of poultry and eggs for the market. The use of any breed on such farms should be good witness of its utility. The tabulation of the breeds used on Buch plants as are shown to the writer gives the following results: White Wyandottes occupy first place, being used on about twice aB many plants as any other one breed. Single-comb White Leghorns, Barred Plymouth Rocks and White Plymouth Rocks follow next in order. Rhode Island Reds, Light Brafcmas, Buff Wyandottes, Buff Plymouth Rocks, Brown Leghorns and Black Minorca* are the other breeds in use. Leg horns, Minorcas and Rhode Island Reds are used on the egg farms. Light Brahmas and Plymouth Rocks on the roaBter and capon plants, while the broiler and combination plants use Plymouth Rocks, Wyan dottes or Rhode Island Reds. Cause of Gapes. Gapes are caused by a worm-like parasite that becomes attached to the lining of the windpipe. Wet and fil thy grounds are a prolific cause. Iso late the Infected birds and spade up the yard with slacked lime once a week. Remove the parasites from the windpipe with a feather dipped In turpentine. Put a little turpentine or eamphor In the drinking water. Limit on Egg*. One good mother hen can brood twenty chicks and even more with ease, while she cannot successfully coYer more than thirteen. Thus it is well to set two hens at the eame time and give one the chicks from the two hatchings. The other hen can thus cover thirteen eggs again and raise her own little family when these are hatched. Grit in the Ration. A hen cannot digest her food prop erty without plonty of grit in her dl-* geative apparatus. Keep a good sup ply of it always on where she can have free access to it, for, no grit, no digestion; no digestion, no eggs; no eggs, no dividends from the dlrso tlon of the henhouse.
